If Blackburn win they'll be four points behind Spurs. Would love to see them finish 4th.

1-0 Liverpool. Robbie Fowler 30'

Now Liverpool have taken the lead over Blackburn but not without some controversy. Fowler chested the ball down in the direction of an offside Cisse. Cisse goes to play the ball but doesnt touch it. All the Blackburn players stop and put their hand up but Morientes continues on and cuts it back for Fowler to score.

 

IMO this goal shouldnt have standed as an offside Cisse went to play the ball but didnt touch the ball. All the Blackburn players have seen it and Cisse is right in the play, not like he is walking back from an offside position but right in the thick of it.

 

I guess it doesnt matter in the end as it says Liverpool are 1-0 up. Stupid really, got to feel for Rovers there.

 

Also Cisse diving and got Savage booked when he clearly didnt touch him. Add to that the 2 i saw from Essien last night and then Nicky Butt and Teliby not being sent off in the Midlands derby im starting to wonder.

I agree the goal should not have counted. Offside it was, Cisse went to take the ball at first putting off the Blackburn defenders, making step back for a split second.

It was offside easily. Struggling to care but it was offside.
